    Chapter 876 Ueda Kenkichi¡¯s Appetite

    The Battle of Arsenyev in the Far East of the Soviet Union lasted for more than two months. It ended with the remaining troops of Timoshenko's Second Far East Army breaking through and moving to the direction of Kamchatka, escaping the danger of being annihilated.  .  {}

    The wheel of the war has not stopped. General Kenkichi Ueda, the commander of the Kwantung Army who had worked hard and almost empty-handed, set his eyes on the Soviet Transcaucasus Front Army Gen. Kinski who came to rescue Timoshenko.  The general's troops led the Kwantung Army troops concentrated in the Far East, with more than 500,000 troops in hot pursuit.

    The retreat route of the Soviet army is quite intriguing. It returns the same way. In this way, hundreds of thousands of Soviet and Japanese troops will inevitably pass through the defense line of the Outer Mongolia Border Guard and the Lake Baikal area.

    Tang Qiuli, who received a telegram from Sun Zhenbang, the commander of the Outer Mongolia Border Guards, saw through the Soviet conspiracy at a glance. This was a typical example of diverting misfortune eastward. When Ueda Kenkichi encountered Sun Zhenbang's army, which was also powerful, how could he be merciful?  , it is easy to eat the Outer Mongolian border guards by the way. The hatred between Tang Qiuli and the Japanese is also clear to the Soviets.

    Therefore, Tang Qiuli's order to Sun Zhenbang was based on a principle. The Japanese and Soviets can fight as they like. Just get out of the way and avoid them. If Ueda Kenkichi continues to pursue them, the Ural Mountains will be in front of them.  This mountain range is the European part of the Soviet Union. I was so anxious when I saw it.

    The actions of the Chinese *** team were beyond the expectations of the Soviets, and Ueda Kenkichi was not sure of the mystery behind it. Commanding the troops, with the more than 500,000 Kwantung Army troops chasing them, and the commander and political commissar of the Soviet Transcaucasian Front, who were at a distance,  Retaining General Kinsky, we have reached the area east of Lake Baikal.

    However, there was no sound of gunfire he expected to hear from behind. The retreat plan given to him by the General Staff did not explain how to deal with this situation. The rear guard also reported that the Japanese army had been chasing behind and no fighting occurred. According to  The mark on the map indicated that this was already a Chinese defense zone. A telegram was rushed to the General Staff Headquarters of the Soviet Red Army.

    Soviet Union, Moscow, Kremlin, the office of Stalin, General Secretary of the Soviet Union and Chairman of the Council of Ministers. Comrade Stalin got angry again. A group of senior generals from the General Staff sat silently on their chairs and looked at Comrade Stalin's gloomy fear.  s face.

    Stalin was extremely angry. The retreat route for the Transcaucasus Front that he personally planned did not achieve the results he wanted. The Chinese and Japanese were fighting in the Lake Baikal area. He was disappointed, extremely disappointed, and this disappointment  Emotions are like a harbinger before a storm.

    Timoshenko successfully broke through. Although the troops suffered heavy losses, Stalin still let go of the last burden in his mind. The losses of the troops were not a big deal. The great Soviet did not lack human resources. Given time, a fully-staffed group army would soon be able to  Completed.

    In Stalin's mind, Timoshenko was almost as important as Zhukov. More importantly, Stalin wanted to tell the Japanese that it was impossible to annihilate any Soviet Red Army unit anywhere.  These were the two main reasons why Stalin wanted to rescue Timoshenko's troops at any cost.

    Stalin did it. Although Timoshenko's Second Far East Army suffered heavy losses, with 280,000 people fighting in the end and less than 80,000 people left, the Japanese Kwantung Army suffered similar losses. As for the Far East,  As long as Zhukov's Far Eastern Front launches a counterattack, it will be recovered soon.

    But his next plan was completely ruined. The Chinese and Japanese did not fight in the Lake Baikal area. After receiving the telegram to retain Kinski, Stalin's anger burst out.  The Chinese scoundrel and extortionist evacuated his troops cleanly from the Lake Baikal area and hid in the Kent Mountains of Outer Mongolia, clearly just to watch the excitement.

    Seeing the Soviet Union and the Japanese fighting each other to the death, Stalin had to pay a huge economic price for being led by the Chinese scoundrel and losing the Outer Mongolia and Lake Baikal regions. This series of events made Stalin's  Inside, he was filled with anger and a feeling of being insulted. This feeling turned into deep-seated hatred as the Soviets were blackmailed by Tang Qiuli for the second time.

    As long as Tang Qiuli and the Japanese were fighting around Lake Baikal, Stalin would have a way to take back the Lake Baikal area and even the entire Outer Mongolia region. But now, there has been a huge deviation, and Stalin's follow-up strategies are all useless. This kind of loss  The feeling is not so much anger as frustration and powerlessness.

    Tang Qiuli hid cunningly, so the Soviet Red Army had to take action. The arrogant Japanese Ueda Kenkichi did not encounter any resistance in several days of pursuit. He should have new ambitions, that is, to Chen Bing in the Ural Mountains and conquer the Soviet Union.  The lands in the east are includedJapanese territory.

    Thinking of this, Stalin sneered, temporarily leaving the annoying Chinese Tang Qiuli behind, and said: "Comrades, the current situation is very serious. The Japanese already have the ambition to occupy the great Soviet territory, okay,  Let the arrogant Japanese have a taste of the iron fist of our Red Army soldiers."

    Stalin finally spoke, and the depressing atmosphere in the office immediately disappeared. As long as the supreme leader spoke, he already had a countermeasure in his mind. Stalin continued: "The General Staff immediately ordered Zhukov's Far Eastern Front to attack the Japanese Kanto who were pursuing Kinski.  The army troops launched a full-line counterattack. Now, part of the Kwantung Army's troops are pinned down in the western Liaoning area of ??northeast China by China's Tang Qiuli's troops. This is good news for our Soviet Red Army. Please tell Comrade Zhukov that we must resolutely and  Completely drive the Japanese back to Northeast China and regain their lost territory.¡±

    Stalin walked to the door and added: "This campaign will be put under the command of Zhukov, and all the troops in the Far East will be under his leadership. That's it." Stalin's words were the decision of the meeting.

    Ueda Kenkichi pursued Kinski for several days without encountering any resistance at all. More than 500,000 Kwantung Army troops, as if entering uninhabited territory, rapidly advanced on Soviet soil. As time went by, Ueda Kenkichi  Ji's originally depressed mood became surprisingly better and gradually became more exciting.

    He discovered that the Imperial Japanese Army was getting closer and closer to the Ural Mountains. In the Far East of the Soviet Union, several main forces of the Soviet Army had suffered heavy blows from the Imperial Army. If they did not pose a threat to the Kwantung Army, they would  For the Soviet Transcaucasus Front troops that he had been pursuing, there was no room for counterattack and they chased them all the way.

    Could it be that Amaterasu gave himself another chance to create a miracle? He mobilized the Ural Mountains and incorporated the Soviet Union's territory in Asia into the territory of the Japanese Empire. Ueda Kenkichi was excited about his idea and his blood boiled. This was  A grand undertaking that countless imperial predecessors could not complete.

    As for other senior generals' reminders that they had arrived at the defense area of ??the China Devil Tang Qiuli's troops and the Outer Mongolia border guards, they should pay attention to the sudden attack by the China army. Ueda Kenkichi disagreed very much. He knew that Tang Qiuli's power was only in Outer Mongolia.  There are only a few border guards, and if it's convenient, he wouldn't mind taking all these small fish and shrimps with him.

    Fighting against several main regiments of Tang Qiuli's troops, Ueda Kenkichi was not sure. However, Ueda Kenkichi did not think it would be difficult to deal with troops like the Japanese Army. If the Soviets retreated all the way to the west of the Ural Mountains, he would even want to do it in one fell swoop.  Occupy the Outer Mongolia region, insert a knife on Tang Qiuli's flank, threaten Pingjin and even North China, in order to avenge multiple arrows.

    Ueda Kenkichi felt very good about himself. He swept away his previous anxiety and ordered the Kwantung Army troops to speed up the march into the Ural Mountains. He planted the sun flag on the Salekhard Peak and completed the occupation of the eastern territory of Soviet Russia. The Ueda family appeared.  The first governor of the occupied territory is also very likely.

    Other senior generals of the Kwantung Army were not as optimistic as Ueda Kenkichi. As they continued to penetrate deeper into Soviet territory, the strange thing was that the Soviets did not conduct even a single interception. This was abnormal in itself, except for Timoshenko's Soviet Far East Army.  The Second Army troops suffered a devastating blow and were unable to launch an attack. The strength of several other Soviet troops basically remained intact, and they did not move. This was very strange.

    But looking at His Excellency the Commander's expression of excitement as if he had taken a drug, these senior officers knew that any objection or question they had now would be ruthlessly attacked by His Excellency the Commander, and would be killed by this crazy guy.  It¡¯s also something that can¡¯t be said for sure.

    As the Kwantung Army troops rapidly advanced toward the Ural Mountains, getting farther and farther away from the logistics supply base, except for Ueda Kenkichi, the other senior officers of the Kwantung Army became increasingly uneasy.

    On November 26, the Soviet Far Eastern Front troops commanded by Zhukov suddenly launched a large-scale counterattack against the Kwantung Army troops from three directions: Chelyabinsk, Kirov, and Turukhansk.  Ueda Kenyoshi pursued the Soviet Transcaucasian Front troops, stopped their retreat, turned around and fought out from the direction of Omsk.

    The four-pronged Soviet army, with a strength of more than 600,000, was heading towards the Kwantung Army. Among them, Zhukov's Far Eastern Front troops were an absolute force. With a strong murderous aura that had been suppressed for a long time, they came overwhelmingly.  , how can the Kwantung Army troops, who have no rest and fight non-stop, endure it.

    As soon as the battle began, the Kwantung Army troops were unable to withstand the fierce attack by the new Soviet troops and retreated one after another. What was even more serious was that Timoshenko's troops retreated to the direction of Kamchatka, and the Soviet Kamchatka troops  Together with the Canadian front troops, they launched an attack on the Khabarovsk area, intending to?Obviously, cutting off Ueda Kenkichi's retreat and leaving more than 500,000 Kwantung Army troops in the Ural region will create a replica of the Arsenyev Battle.
